Unhinged to describe the criticism of her journalistic ethics as a "freaksome lynching" when she has not denied any of the allegations and admits to most of them in her book.
Possibly the only thing more freakish than Nuzzi's prose is the contortions her defenders twist themselves into. "She's not just hot, but she definitely is hot, while also being a vulnerable smol child. Also, criticizing her is sexist."

The hepatitis B vaccine had been recommended for all newborns since 1991.

From 1990-2019, acute hepatitis B infections reported among children and teens fell 99 percent. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/16/w...
Breaking: After contentious debates and three failed attempts at a vote, a federal vaccine committee decided on Friday to end the decades-long recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B.

Enjoying the punishment of an entire group for the actions of some members of that group is something Trump fans and liberals have in common.

folks, please be sure to support actual journalists! there's so many amazing newsrooms doing amazing work right now.
In a note to staff, Business Insider EIC Jamie Heller says the publication is launching a pilot program called Business Insider AI News Desk that will use AI to “help publish quick news stories.”

Several stories a day will now be “created by AI and edited by a person.”

there's something really satisfying about having a website that i actually have creative control over, as well as the (admittedly still novice) skills to design it. if i don't like something, i can change it and see immediate results! and if i mess something up in the process, it's entirely my fault

if you are worried that people might fraudulently access disability accommodations to gain a competitive edge in college, the proper solution is to structure education less like a competition

but I encourage you to think about disability accomodations from a lens where disabled people exist to you

big papers, particularly the NYT, just *love* stealing a story idea and re-reporting it without credit
here is my story about how Zohran's focus on community amid the loneliness epidemic helped young people connect their politics to an organizing infrastructure, that interviewed ZM, and does not use the NYT's framing of "they don't know how to make friends" :-) and also ran 4 days before NYT's lol
Zohran Mamdani's Establishment-Fighting Campaign Built Community for Young People
“What Mamdani has done is not only inspire and mobilize young people, but he has exposed the establishment and some of their calcified views of participation and inclusion.”

we can chalk it up to youth and inexperience but the biggest mistake the mamdani campaign made was winning by 8.8% and not 1.5%, which is the margin needed for the media to say it’s a total mandate

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have just authorized a massive strike.

Union Starbucks baristas voted to authorize the strike by 92%.

Now baristas in over 25 cities could launch an unfair labor practice strike on Thursday, November 13th.

Curtis Sliwa, a complete maniac and deeply prejudiced republican, has treated Zohran Mamdani with more respect than a gigantic chunk of "liberal" politicians and public figures. He has treated him like a human being which is more than I can say about shit like this.
Joe Gebbia, a billionaire, is the co-founder of AirBnB, a presidential appointee and a Tesla board member claiming ISIS waited until the last minute to endorse Mamdani.

This is sick.

I am taking particular pleasure in the complete collapse of trans-as-unbeatable-wedge-issue narrative this morning. It might be an 80-20 issue in voters minds, but it has to be on voters minds to matter. The results in VA demonstrate that it is very much not on voters minds.

I strongly believe that mayors should be required to wear a big sash that says “MAYOR” on it. In recent times mayors have forgotten that they serve we the people, and we want the sash

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.
